- the litz wire is implemented as a flat ribbon cable. A high efficiency is thereby achievable in a compact space area.
- winding 20 is drawn in only symbolically.
- winding 20 is in the form of a flat winding, thus a planar, concentric winding.

- winding 20 of the secondary coil is made up of part windings ( 41 , 42 ), a capacitance being connected in series to each part winding ( 41 , 42 ) to reduce the peak voltage occurring at the secondary-coil terminals, thus, in connecting lead 10 , as well. Therefore, the secondary current flows via first part winding 41 , and then into the allocated first capacitance. After that, it flows via second part winding 42 , and then into the allocated second capacitance. This is continued up to the last capacitance.
- Each inductance and the assigned capacitance are dimensioned such that the associated resonant frequency corresponds substantially to the medium frequency.

- a capacitance is connected in series between the inductance of each part winding ( 41 , 42 ).

- DE 103 12 284 describes a pick-up that includes a secondary coil able to be coupled inductively to a primary conductor.
- DE 24 451 143 describes an electric transformer, in which a ribbon cable is used to form at least two windings.
- The U.S. Pat. No. 5,500,632 describes a wide-band audio transformer.
- Example embodiments of the present invention provide an installation that may be manufactured with low expenditure.
- The installation may be provided as an installation for the non-contact transfer of energy, including at least one primary conductor system and a pick-up, including at least one secondary winding inductively coupled to the primary conductor system, the secondary winding including at least one flat ribbon cable, which has at least two electrical conductors extending in parallel, that are held at a distance from each other and are insulated with respect to each other, the secondary winding including part windings, which in each case are formed from one of the electrical conductors, each of the part windings, together with an associated capacitance, forming a series resonant circuit whose resonant frequency corresponds substantially to the medium frequency of the primary current.
- This offers the advantage that a coil winding having many part windings, which are connectable in series, is manufacturable without great expenditure. The reason is that it is only necessary to use the flat ribbon cable to implement the winding. No further expenditure is necessary to produce the part windings. The flat ribbon cable holds a plurality of conductors separate and is able to be manufactured easily and inexpensively by extrusion-coating or extruding. The material of the flat ribbon cable is preferably of plastic. A winding is able to be wound more quickly, since all conductors of the flat ribbon cable are wrapped once simultaneously during a wrapping, thus reducing the expenditure for the winding.
- In example embodiments, the coil winding, thus the secondary winding, is made from two or more flat ribbon cables, the flat ribbon cables being disposed in periodic sequence from inside to outside. An advantage in this case is that a great number of part windings are able to be produced with low expenditure. In addition, the adjacent conductors of one flat ribbon cable are axially adjacent to each other. However, the adjacent conductors of two conductors in different flat ribbon cables are able to be provided radially side by side. Therefore, only small voltages occur between adjacent part windings.
- In example embodiments, the conductors are litz-wire lines, whose individual stranded wires are insulated with respect to each other. This has the advantage of reducing the skin effect.
- In example embodiments, each conductor is provided as a part winding of the total coil winding. This offers the advantage that the conductors are combined in one flat ribbon cable, and therefore the coil winding, including all part windings, may be produced easily and quickly.
- In example embodiments, the pick-up is provided for an installation for the non-contact transfer of energy, the housing of the pick-up surrounding a secondary coil together with its core, as well as capacitors for forming a capacitance electrically connected to the coil.
- The advantage in this case is that the pick-up is able to be mounted as a unit, and a general dissipation of heat from the components may be provided. In addition, only one housing is needed for all components, and they are able to be configured compactly and insulated. However, a further important advantage is also that the large voltages occurring, particularly in the case of the series resonant circuit, or large currents, particularly in the case of the parallel resonant circuit, are easily controllable, and the necessity of laying long electrical lines between the inductance and the capacitance, which would be painstaking and costly as well as result in increased radiation and losses, is avoided. Furthermore, only one connecting lead, which must transmit the load current and the load voltage, is provided to the load. Higher currents or voltages, which occur only within or because of the parallel or serial resonant circuit, remain spatially within the pick-up. Therefore, the requisite technical arrangements, such as conductor bars for heavy current and/or insulating material for high voltages, are disposed within the pick-up, thus in a spatially tightly-restricted area. Therefore, the arrangement may be implemented compactly. Moreover, the housing of the pick-up is also usable for insulation and as shock-hazard protection. In addition, the wiring, thus, the electrical connections and connecting points, with the exception of the connecting lead, are able to be provided in this spatially tightly-restricted area.
- In example embodiments, at least one inductance and capacitance are provided as resonant circuit, particularly as parallel or series resonant circuit, in the pick-up, the resonant frequency corresponding substantially to the medium frequency of the primary current. This offers the advantage that electromagnetic emissions and the expenditure for electrical connections are reducible.
- In example embodiments, the housing is assembled from housing parts, especially in a manner that is leak-proof, detachably connectable and/or in high degree of protection. The advantage here is that the pick-up is also usable in a humid or wet environment, or even in a water environment. Even greater water tightness and better mechanical stability may be achieved by the use of potting compound within the pick-up.

This is advantageous in that the voltages occurring within the pick-up are reducible, and therefore a simpler insulation is feasible.
- In example embodiments, the pick-up includes a series connection of the series resonant circuits, including the part winding and, in each case, associated capacitance. This offers the advantage that the voltages occurring in the pick-up, especially at the winding taps, may be kept small.
- In example embodiments, the coil winding is in the form of a flat winding. This has the advantage that the pick-up may be particularly compact.
- In example embodiments, the housing is implemented as metal, particularly aluminum. This is advantageous in that stray fields or eddy current losses may be kept small. In addition, the spreading of heat is improved, thus, the heat generated by the coil is dispersed more quickly on the housing, and therefore the peak temperature at the housing is reduced. Moreover, the metal improves the screening of magnetic stray fields escaping from the pick-up. Thus, even a mounting of the pick-up on steel is made possible.
- In example embodiments, potting compound is provided in the interior of the pick-up. This offers the advantage that electrical insulation, mechanical cohesion, stability against vibrational tendency and the dissipation of heat to the surroundings are able to be improved.
- In example embodiments, the lines of the flat ribbon cable of the coil winding are each in the form of litz wires, the individual stranded wires being insulated with respect to each other, in particular, the flat ribbon cable being a flat ribbon cable wound up in a spiral shape or rectangular-spiral shape. This is advantageous because HF litz wires are available inexpensively, and the consequences of the skin effect are reducible. Therefore, high efficiencies are also achievable at frequencies of the AC current between 10 and 100 kHz.
- In example embodiments, connected in series to each part winding is an assigned capacitance, to which in turn another part winding is connected in series, the part windings being positioned in spatial proximity, in particular being adjacent. The advantage here is that spatially adjacent part windings exhibit a low voltage difference relative to each other.
- Therefore, the demands on insulating clearance between these adjacent part windings are low.
- In example embodiments, connected in series to each part winding is an assigned capacitance, to which in turn another part winding is connected in series, the first part winding being assigned to a first flat ribbon cable, and the other part winding being assigned to another flat ribbon cable. This offers the advantage that the two flat ribbon cables are able to be wound up together to form the coil. In addition, each flat ribbon cable has an end and a start. This is advantageous because a plurality of part windings are connectable quickly and easily to a plurality of capacitances, and they in turn are connectable to a plurality of further part windings by running an end of the first and a start of the other flat ribbon cable to a printed circuit board and electrically connecting them.
- Thus, an extensive series connection of a plurality of inductances and capacitances may be produced easily and quickly. Among the features with respect to the installation are that a previously described pick-up is provided in a manner allowing travel along an extended primary conductor. This is advantageous in that a particularly compact installation is able to be provided, in which a primary conductor system is able to be supplied from an infeed, and movably disposed loads are able to be fed from the primary conductor system in non-contact fashion via a weak inductive coupling, thus also across a large air gap.
- In example embodiments, the pick-up is provided in a manner allowing travel along an extended primary conductor. This is advantageous because energy is transmittable to a movably disposed load, thus, for example, to an electric drive of a vehicle.
- In, the primary conductors in the direction of the axis of the coil winding have a distance to the coil core which is less than the distance of two limbs of the coil core to each other. Of advantage is that high efficiency is attainable, even though the primary conductors are disposed in a first plane, e.g., are laid in the base, and the pick-up is movable above this plane, undisturbed.
- In example embodiments, one section of the coil core is E-shaped, such that a middle limb and two outer limbs are provided on back parts disposed in one plane, in particular, the direction of the normal of the sectional plane extending in the direction of the extended primary conductors. The advantage here is that the primary conductors are each able to be provided in the area between the outer and middle limb, the primary conductor having a distance from the limbs, however, and the distance between the primary conductor and the part connecting the limbs being greater than each limb length. In the case of an E-shaped coil core, the part is the back part of the E.

Band 1 flat ribbon cable -
Band 2 flat ribbon cable - A device according to example embodiments of the present invention is shown in plan view in
FIG. 1 a, in section inFIG. 1 b, in oblique view inFIG. 1 c and in exploded view inFIG. 1 d. - In concerns what is referred to as a pick-up that, by way of example, is attachable to a load. The load is disposed in a manner allowing movement along a primary conductor, a medium-frequency AC current being injected into the primary conductor by an infeed. The infeed is preferably in the form of a current source.
- The associated secondary winding, which is able to be coupled inductively to the primary conductor, is provided in the pick-up. The coupling is weak, thus across a large air gap. However, to nevertheless permit high efficiency in the non-contact transfer of the electric power from the primary conductor system to the secondary winding, a capacitance is connected in series to the secondary winding such that the associated resonant circuit has a resonant frequency which corresponds essentially to the medium frequency.
- The pick-up has a
housing 1, preferably made of metal such as aluminum. It surrounds the substantially E-shaped coil core and secondary winding 20 surrounding it, which is shown only symbolically. The coil core is assembled from ferrite plates (11, 21) and ferrite parts. The approximate shape of the coil core may be described as an E whose middle limb is not widened. However, the outer two limbs are widened at their end by placingferrite plates 11 at the end of the limbs. In this context, the outer limbs are constructed fromferrite parts 12. The middle limb is implemented using twoferrite parts 14 and a ferrite plate provided thereon. - At the lateral end of
housing 1,ferrite plates 21 are mounted on the inner side, the ferrite plates being provided to reduce stray fields and to further improve efficiency. - The entire configuration of ferrite cores, ferrite parts and winding 20 is provided within
housing 1. An insulation, not shown in the figure, is provided between printedcircuit boards 5 fitted withcapacitors 6. Provided on printedcircuit boards 5 arecapacitors 6 which form the indicated capacitance that, in each case, is connected in series to the inductance of the secondary coil, i.e., its part windings. - According to the figures, a plurality of printed circuit boards is provided in the interior. In particular, they are situated parallel to each other. It may be provided to in each case dispose two printed circuit boards along two inner sides, the capacitors being positioned facing away from each other.
- With the aid of
seal 7 and using screws, a housing plate is able to be screwed onto and imperviously joined tohousing 1. The interior is encapsulated with potting compound beforehand, whereby heat conduction and insulation may be improved. - A lead-through for connecting
lead 10 is provided onhousing 1, as well. A load such as an electric motor or electronic circuit is thereby able to be fed. - The coil core, E-shaped in section, is made up of a plurality of small ferrite plates and ferrite parts. It is thus possible to manufacture various geometrical dimensions and shapes easily, cost-effectively and quickly.
- In further exemplary embodiments, the capacitance is implemented in parallel instead of in series to the inductance of the secondary coil.
- The winding is produced from HF-litz wire, thus from litz wire whose mutually-contacting, individual wires are electrically insulated with respect to each other, e.g., by applying an enamel. Losses are thus reduced.
- In addition, the litz wire is implemented as a flat ribbon cable. A high efficiency is thereby achievable in a compact space area.
- In
FIGS. 1 a to 1 d, winding 20 is drawn in only symbolically. In example embodiments of the present invention, winding 20 is in the form of a flat winding, thus a planar, concentric winding. Overall, therefore, winding 20 is arranged in a rectangular-spiral shape or oval-spiral shape. That is to say, the flat ribbon cable is wound in approximately a rectangular shape or oval shape in one plane. The space required is therefore reduced. - The flat ribbon cable of winding 20 includes a plurality of conductors provided parallel to each other and electrically insulated from each other. The carrier material of the flat ribbon cable holds the conductors at a constant distance relative to each other.
- Viewed on the whole, therefore, the flat ribbon cable is wound up as a spiral. The ends of the electrical conductors included are run to a terminal strip. The electrical interconnection of the conductors may be seen in
FIG. 2 . - The aluminum housing reduces losses, and thus improves the efficiency of the installation.
- The primary conductor system includes at least one elongated go conductor and return conductor that belong to a closed loop of the primary conductor system. Both lie outside of the pick-up, thus, in particular, outside of the E-shaped coil core. The two conductors are laid in the direction of the longer side of the rectangular pick-up according to
FIG. 1 a. The pick-up is guided with a certain distance in the line direction along these conductors. The pick-up is assigned to a rail-guided carriage or to a carriage without rail guidance. In the latter case, it may be provided to equip the carriage with a guidance antenna capable of guiding the carriage in the line direction. - Viewed in plan view, thus in the viewing direction according to
FIG. 1 a, the go conductor is provided between the middle limb and one outer limb of the E-shaped coil core. The return conductor is provided between the middle limb and the other outer limb of the E-shaped coil core. As mentioned above, however, in the viewing direction, a distance is provided between the coil core and the go conductor and return conductor. However, this distance is smaller than the limb spacing, thus, the distance from the middle to the outer limb of the E. - In further exemplary embodiments according to the present invention, winding 20 of the secondary coil is made up of part windings (41, 42), a capacitance being connected in series to each part winding (41, 42) to reduce the peak voltage occurring at the secondary-coil terminals, thus, in connecting
lead 10, as well. Therefore, the secondary current flows via first part winding 41, and then into the allocated first capacitance. After that, it flows via second part winding 42, and then into the allocated second capacitance. This is continued up to the last capacitance. Each inductance and the assigned capacitance are dimensioned such that the associated resonant frequency corresponds substantially to the medium frequency. The printed circuit boards are particularly well-suited to realize the connections between the part windings and the capacitors in a simple and cost-effective manner. At the same time, each part winding is a flat winding. - In further exemplary embodiments according to the present invention, one of the capacitances or the capacitance is realized by series connection and/or parallel connection of a plurality of capacitors.
- In other exemplary embodiments according to the present invention, instead of the substantially E-shaped coil core, a U-shaped or a C-shaped or a differently shaped ferrite core may be used, as well.
- In
FIG. 2 , the path inductances of part windings (41, 42) are shown as symbolic representation of part windings (41, 42), and are denoted by corresponding reference numerals (41, 42). - Secondary winding 20 is produced from a flat ribbon cable, the flat ribbon cable including six side-by-side litz-wire lines, which may be referred to as part windings (41, 42). In particular, the litz-wire lines are provided and held parallel to each other in the flat ribbon cable such that the distance in the transverse direction with respect to the line direction is constant relative to each other. In this context, the retention is accomplished by an insulating plastic that, for example, is producible with the aid of extrusion or extrusion coating surrounding the litz-wire lines. In addition, the flat ribbon cable (
ribbon 1 ofFIG. 2 ) together with a further flat ribbon cable (ribbon 2 ofFIG. 2 ), that likewise includes six litz-wire lines placed side by side, are wound together. The two flat ribbon cables (ribbon 1, ribbon 2) are thus, as it were, stacked on one another such that after the winding, the two flat ribbon cables are provided in alternating sequence from inside to outside. The flat ribbon cable (ribbon 1 ofFIG. 2 ) includesconductors 41 as part windings. The flat ribbon cable (ribbon 2 ofFIG. 2 ) includesconductors 42 as part windings. - As sketched to illustrate this in
FIG. 2 , each litz-wire line in each flat ribbon cable (ribbon 1,ribbon 2 ofFIG. 2 ) is provided for one part winding (41, 42), the respective litz-wire line with its associated path inductance being represented symbolically inFIG. 2 . As mentioned above, in each case a capacitance is connected in series between the inductance of each part winding (41, 42). Thus, a resonant circuit is able to be built up from capacitors and litz-wire lines without additional inductances having to be provided. Above the capacitors inFIG. 2 , the flat ribbon cable is thus indicated asribbon 1 with the aid of its litz-wireline section inductances 41; below, the flat ribbon cable is indicated asribbon 2 with the aid of its litz-wire line section inductances 42. - A capacitor is connected in series to a first part winding 41 realized with a first litz-wire line in the first flat ribbon cable (
ribbon 1 of FIG. 2)—represented by the litz-wire line sections with associatedpath inductances 41—the capacitor being followed by a first part winding 42 realized with a first litz-wire line in the second flat ribbon cable. Connected in series to the capacitance series-connected to this part winding is the second part winding, which is realized with the second litz-wire line, in the first flat ribbon cable (ribbon 2 inFIG. 2 ). Connected in series to the following capacitance is then, in turn, the second part winding, which is realized with the second litz-wire line, in the second flat ribbon cable (ribbon 2 inFIG. 2 ). This is continued in this manner. In so doing, the sequence of litz-wire lines is selected and arranged such that the successive part windings are spatially adjacent. The voltage differences are therefore reduced. In addition, coil windings in which many part windings are provided may be realized without expenditure. - A further advantage of the type of winding according to
FIG. 2 is that a first end of the first flat ribbon cable (ribbon 1 inFIG. 2 ) is electrically connectable to printed circuit traces on a first printedcircuit board 31. A first end of the second flat ribbon cable (ribbon 2 inFIG. 2 ) is connectable on the same printedcircuit board 31. Therefore, a first set of capacitors is connectable between the respective ends. - In analogous manner, the two other ends of the two flat ribbon cables (
ribbon 1 andribbon 2 inFIG. 2 ) are connected on a second printedcircuit board 32 with a second set of capacitors. - Overall, therefore, the flat ribbon cable is wound as a flat winding. Consequently, the conductors held together in the flat ribbon cable lie in parallel one upon the other, the width of the winding in this direction being determined substantially by the width of the flat ribbon cable.
- Winding 20 shown only symbolically in
FIGS. 1 a to 1 d, and winding 20 represented only in terms of circuit engineering with inductances inFIG. 2 , is clarified more precisely inFIG. 3 for an exemplary number of turns per unit length of 3/2. - The ends of
parallel conductors 41 of the flat ribbon cable,ribbon 1, are connected at their respective first end to aterminal strip 301, and at their other end to aterminal strip 302. The terminal strip includes connection terminals for each conductor of the respective flat ribbon cable, so that this respective conductor is connected to a capacitance assigned to it. In the same manner, the ends of the conductors of the flat ribbon cable,ribbon 2, are connected toterminal strips -
Terminal strips circuit board 31 and are provided on it. -
Terminal strips circuit board 32 and are provided on it. - In further exemplary embodiments according to the present invention, other numbers of turns per unit length instead of 3/2 have come to light, particularly 11/2, 13/2, or even 15/2. This especially holds true for primary-conductor currents between 10 and 100 ampere, and a maximum power between 300 W and 3 kW to be tapped off from the winding.
